Ingredients

• 500 grams Baby potatoes
• 2 medium Yellow onion
• 3 tablespoons Butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for texture and flavor. If the potatoes are larger, cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for about 8-10 minutes until they are fork-tender but not falling apart. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Peel and slice the yellow onions thinly into half-moons.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-low heat.

Step 5

Add the sliced onions to the skillet, sprinkle with brown sugar and a pinch of salt, and cook gently for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the onions are golden brown and caramelized.

Step 6

Push the onions to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the empty side, melt it, and then add the cooked potatoes to the skillet.

Step 7

Gently toss the potatoes in the butter, allowing them to brown slightly on the edges. Mix the potatoes with the caramelized onions, ensuring everything is evenly coated.

Step 8

Season with the remaining salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.

Step 9

Transfer the onion caramelized potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
